Thread: Doing different programs at the same time...

If you hold the shift key down while you hit the link it will open in a new window and not 'overwrite' the other program. You can have multiple windows open this way and do multiple searchs or whatever at once (which is also nice if you want to compare search results since the results will be open in different windows).

I think you are discussing web browsers ..
If so, in addition to holding down the shift-key, you can also just right-click on the link and choose "open in new window" -- all up to what you prefer.

Instead of IE, I've been using Mozilla Firefox and this allows you to open websites in "tabs" within the same window - or open in new window as IE allows you to do.

I love the "tabs" feature b/c I get annoyed by all of the different windows and it just keeps things cleaner.
The only drawback so far is that some websites will not load correctly so I do go back to IE every once in awhile.

Anyhow - thanks for listening and I hope you find what works best for you.

You probably have Internet Explorer set to use the same window all the time when browsing. This is a default setting with Windows and you can easily change it by clicking on "Tools" in the upper toolbar, then click "Internet Options", then click the "Advanced" tab. Under "Browsing", you will see a line that says "reuse windows for launching shortcuts". Just remove the checkmark and click "Apply".

If you are using IE, you can trying pressing control +n. and a new window will open then you can type in the address. It works for me, I ususally have memolink, luckypoints, and pchpoints going all at once.

I can operate two at a time, say Gain Mail and Gain Again, by clicking one from Outlook Express and the other from the site inbox. There are some other program, like Quick Rewards or Creations Rewards, that work differently that I can also run at the same time.

I right click on my mouse and highlight open link in new window.
